- Jensson 2y agoIf you can write code then you are literate for sure.
- illiac786 2y agoNo, you can have very low skills in English and still be able to code, like many coders in Asia. Hence, it definitely can be the same for native English speakers.
- Jensson 2y agoI assume those coders are literate in their native language, why do you say that is evidence you can code without being literate if you learned to code in English?
- illiac786 2y agoI assumed you thought you had to be literate to write code because it’s in English. I think I disagree twice then. You do not need to be literate (as per the definition of the post), neither in English nor in another language to be able to code, I have seen with my own eyes people who struggle to write a simple email being able to produce code. (Please keep in mind the definition of literacy as per the post)
